Circulating lymphocytes from squirrel monkeys persistently infected with Herpesvirus saimiri (HVS) were separated into B- and T-lymphocyte fractions by a rosette-enrichment technique. HVS was isolated only from lymphocyte fractions forming rosettes or from unseparated lymphocytes; this indicated that T-lymphocytes were the target cells for HVS in the natural host, squirrel monkeys.
